Flying

[average-adam.livejournal.com]

Unable to wait any longer now that everyone had agreed to go flying with him, Adam sent owls to Nny, Susan, River, Kaylee, Teatime, Harry, Ginny, and Devi to let them know that he'd gone down to the Quidditch pitch and to meet him there. He snatched his broom and practically ran down to the field, excited to meet new people and get into the air once again.

"That pretty much goes with the whole condescension bit, yeah."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"And what they possess can be a help."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Do you mean stealing, or am I missing something?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Stealing? Oh, goodness, no. I'm an Assassin, not a thief."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"So what do you mean, then?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"You can always use someone's things without taking them from them, whether that thing is power or possession. You merely need to ask politely." His grin glowed; this wasn't a deep dark secret, so why keep it like it was?

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"That'd be your social skills again, right? Or is it your optimism?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Oh, they almost never turn me down when I ask politely." After all, I ALWAYS give them an option. Cake What I want...or death? I really do them favours through that.

"Well, you do have impeccable manners."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"As I'm supposed to, yes."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"You're..." He thought for a moment. "You're good at being who you're supposed to be, aren't you? Just enough, I mean."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"I don't know. Different people do give different reviews. I passed my classes, and I do try to keep up the behaviour."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Most of the teachers here seem to like you just fine, don't they?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"I do hope so. I should hate to have them biased against me."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"I don't think any of the professors actually like me. But if any of them actively hate me, I don't know about it."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"I would think they'd have to be quite silly to."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Why? A lot of people hate me. Not always for long, of course, but I have more limits here."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Because you aren't causing trouble, are you? And they can't go after you for nothing, and get away with it."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, but you don't have to go after someone openly to make problems for them."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Problems can be reversed. You could cause problems for them."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"There's only one that I care that much about, and in his case I'd really prefer something more final."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Then perhaps you'll have to think about how best to rid yourself of him instead of reversing the problem."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Well, first things first. Let's try to get him detention to begin with."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"We do need to do that, yes."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

Nny smiled and cracked his knuckles. "Oh, yes."
